At Glenalmond College we provide an inspirational environment for young people to learn and grow into confident and independent people who will be able to meet the challenges of life head on, be successful in whatever they choose to do, and who are armed with the skills and qualities that will allow them to thrive in this increasingly competitive world.
At the heart of what we do is the academic life of the School; we value, develop and every pupil's academic ability, nurturing excellence at the highest levels and guiding those who find work a little harder. Around this core is a programme of activities and life beyond the classroom that offers the widest range of opportunities in sport, music, drama and the creative arts as well as in the essential qualities of leadership, service, and responsibility.
All of this happens in the context of unsurpassed pastoral care and the development of the spirit and soul.
We are lucky at Glenalmond College to be situated in 300 acres of stunning Perthshire countryside which forms a backdrop to the College and an unrivalled environment for outdoor pursuits. Our campus comprises an outstanding mix of traditional and contemporary buildings set alongside extensive sports facilities - a unique setting providing freedom and space away from the distractions of the city yet within easy reach of the main Scottish cities and airports.
All of our full time teaching staff live on the campus. What the school is known for? Glenalmond is a proper, FULL boarding school. Over 80% of our pupils are full boarders, and the school is as busy on a Saturday or Sunday as it is during the week.
